Lyrics
Monster
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So we were up, throwing dice in the dark
I saw you late, last night, come to harm
I saw you dance in the devil's arms
The night kept coming
Really nothing I could do
Eyes with a fire unquenched by peace
Curse the beauty, curse the queen
So we come to a place with no return
Yours is the face that makes my body burn
And here is the name that our sons will learn
Curse the beauty, curse the queen
Curse the beauty, leave me
So when you’re weak, when you are on your knees
I’ll do my best with the time that’s left
Sworn with your spirit, you’re fully fleshed
So fuck your dreams and don’t you pick at our seams
I will turn into a monster for you, if you pay me enough
None of this counts, a few dreams, plowed up
So we come to a place with no return
Yours is the face that makes my body burn
And here is the name that our sons will learn
Curse the beauty, curse the queen
Curse the beauty, leave me
